Gyre is a program I’ve been writing in Max/MSP for playing my Buchla 200e. It is a work in progress, but I’m finding it pretty usable, even in its current state. One of the things I like about Gyre is that it separates the timing information from the note generation processes. For example, this means that I can have a rhythm going driving a step sequencer, then switch to a Sample & Hold using the same rhythm pattern.
